Jeremy's first instinct was to grab Madeline's hand and hold her in his arms.He thought it was Ryan, but he lightened up when he saw the man who entered the apartment.Madeline did not care who it was as she only nervously held Jeremy's hand, her eyes red and watery."Where's your phone? Give it to me. I'll call you an ambulance!" She anxiously rummaged through Jeremy's pockets."There’s no need to call an ambulance. He'll be fine." Adam strode over to Jeremy with his medical kit.Madeline finally seemed to notice that someone had entered. She looked at Adam and was somehow stunned.Adam put down the medical kit and squatted in front of Jeremy.He took a look at Jeremy's condition before quickly taking out a syringe and the reagent before skillfully injecting Jeremy with it.Once again, Jeremy felt the familiar chill seeping through every cell of his body. After a brief period of numbness, the discomfort gradually subsided and his condition eased.Madeline noticed the change
"If it's a secret, how can I tell it to someone else so easily?" Adam did not seem to want to go into detail, but he was not hiding it either. He met Jeremy's inquiring gaze and said truthfully, "Jeremy, if I tell you that I didn't develop this slow-acting poison, would you believe me?" Jeremy would not have believed him if it was before.Now, he answered without hesitation, "Yes."There was a glint in Adam's eye when he got the answer, and gloom appeared on his handsome face."Do you know why I wanted to become a doctor?"Jeremy pondered for a few seconds and said, "It involves your parents, doesn’t it?"Adam was not surprised that Jeremy would have such speculation. "It seems that you’ve checked my background.""I've read up on you and Ryan," Jeremy admitted generously.Adam smiled faintly. He lowered his eyes slightly, and the reflection on his glasses made it hard to see his eyes and expression right now."From the moment I officially became a doctor and took the oath on
Sean was stunned for a moment before chuckling coldly."Are you saying that Lana used you? Hmph, that doesn't take away the fact that you started the fire! Did you forget how obedient you were to Lana? You wouldn't even glance at Eveline!" Sean was mad.At the end of the day, Sean could not forgive Jeremy for his coldness and indifference to Madeline back then."Eveline thought you were dead and cried every night. As her father, I know it full well!"She labored to carry a child for you, but what did you do? Didn't your heart ache when you let that crazy woman make Eveline so mad that she went into early labor and gave birth to Pudding unassisted?"Jeremy furrowed his long eyebrows slightly. 'How could I not be heartbroken?'When he saw her bleeding and suffering, he realized how important she was to him.It was just that he was blinded by the memories Lana had been feeding him."Jeremy, ask yourself how much Eveline loves and cares about you. You said you'd spend the rest of y
Karen was stunned after hearing what Madeline said. "Eveline, what... What are you talking about? This is Jack and Lillian. What's the matter? You don't recognize them?" she asked in disbelief. Her eyes shifted from Madeline's confused face to Jeremy."Jeremy, Eveline..."Jeremy had a distressed frown on her face. "Ryan drove her insane.""What?!" Karen was shocked and instantly furious. "What did Ryan do to Eveline? How could someone be driven insane?"Jeremy frowned deeper. However, for fear of upsetting Madeline, he spoke nothing and told Karen to hold off the questioning.He made Jackson take Lillian away to play on their own while he took Madeline back to their bedroom.When Madeline walked into her and Jeremy's room, the familiar furnishing was unfamiliar to her.However, Madeline seemed to be interested in the room's furnishing. She picked up a photo album next to the bedside table. After opening it, she saw a photo of herself wearing a wedding dress next to a delicate-lo
Old Master Whitman wondered why Karen would suddenly ask about this. He furrowed his gray eyebrows. "Where did you learn about this?"Infuriated, Karen told Old Master Whitman that she just came back from Jones Manor. "The Jones family is unreasonable. Look at what Eveline has become. How dare they say we deserve it?!""We deserve it? Did the Jones family say that?" Old Master Whitman's face darkened. He was visibly displeased.Karen nodded. "How could I joke about something like that? There were a lot of reporters outside and they all heard it."Old Master Whitman's brows furrowed when he heard that. Just as he was about to say something, Jeremy's voice rang."In that case, the media will break the story online soon.""Jeremy." Karen quickly got up and walked over to Jeremy, her eyes full of confusion. "You know about this? What the hell is going on? Why do I have no idea that there’s bad blood between the Whitman family and the Jones family? What do the Whitman family have to d
Madeline's expression changed when she heard this. She asked nervously, "Are you going to disappear?"The bitterness in Jeremy's heart was dispersed by the sweetness he felt when he saw how much she cared, but soon, he felt that he was going too far.'Why would I make her choose? Aren't I just giving her trouble by doing this?'Jeremy gave Madeline a reassuring reply, "No. I’ll always be by your side."Madeline let go of his hand in relief, and with a smile, he turned to a nearby restroom to change his appearance.It was late summer. There were not many people at the beach. Madeline stood by the car alone, looking at the blue sea. Many beautiful images recurred to her mind.However, as she looked on, her beautiful eyes caught sight of a figure that made her shudder reflexively.The man was wearing a black mask and cap. He merely looked at her with his long, narrow eyes.Looking into those eyes, the smile on Madeline's face faded. Even the hint of light sparking in her eyes dimm
Jeremy settled Madeline down before leaving to capture Ryan.Only after Ryan was captured could Linnie stop being scared and recover in a comfortable, relaxing environment.Madeline poked her head out of the window and looked at Jeremy's back as he ran off. There was a vague uneasiness in her beautiful eyes."Jeremy's gone again,” she muttered sadly. A touch of melancholy and worry appeared on her face again.Thinking about what Jeremy had just told her, Madeline sat quietly in the car.However, her heart was beating wildly. Ryan's appearance earlier had startled her.On the other hand, Ryan had been keeping tabs on Madeline and Jeremy. He followed them back the same day they flew back to Glendale.He knew that the police and IBCI were looking for him, but he would not allow himself to be caught until he achieved his goal.After scurrying off, he hid in an alley.The injury he got that day was still inflamed, making him feel a bit off.He wanted to go home, but he read some n
With that, Ryan stopped his arrogant chuckle as his expression changed immediately. He pulled out a gun he had prepared and quickly fired a bullet at Jeremy before turning around.However, Jeremy would not allow himself to be Ryan's target and let him slip away again.He lifted his long legs and dodged the bullet with the help of a crate stacked nearby. At the same time, he leaped to his feet. His cold body came to Ryan's side in a single leap.Ryan jerked back, shock flickering across his face.He grabbed his gun, trying to shoot Jeremy again.However, Jeremy was quick to react. He suddenly reached out and grabbed the gun from Ryan's hand. He countered Ryan and pointed the gun at him.Facing the black muzzle in front of him, Ryan lapsed into a trance. He was not expecting such a twist.Jeremy looked at Ryan with an indifferent expression while Ryan's face changed slightly. There was a chill in Jeremy's eyes."Ryan, I'm not arresting you as an IBCI agent but as Eveline's husban
